Some of the American papers tell the fol-
lowing romantic story in which a Scotsman
figures as the hero: Rather notable we'd
ding took place in New York the other day
with romantic story attached. Mr.. James
Robertson Blackie, of the great Glasgow
publishing house, came over the ocean to
take back with him in the guise of help.
meet Miss Ellen Bolts, of Savannah, Ga. :,
who is a niece of the late President Arthur
He is tall blonde young fellow, who is an
excellent business man, as the present pros
perity of his house shows, and with heart
in the right place, as the following little
story proves: His wife was a relative of his
stepmother, and came school girl to
Glasgow to be educated, living in his faith
er's home. He fell in love with her
promptly, and they were Professionally en-
gagged owing to her youth. Upon her return
to this country she was for some time the de-
voted nurse of her dying grandfather, and
after his death was attacked with fever as
resalt of her fatigue. While still GONZALES
cent the great earthquake thst shook Charles
ton to pieces came to Savannah, and the
shock and terror acting upon her enfeebled
nerves entirely destroyed her sight. The
specialists here When consulted declared the
case was hopeless and she must resign her
self to lifelong blindness. Upon this pain
full verdict she wrote to her iancee, releasing
him from the engagement, and resigned her
self to darkness and loneliness for the rest of
her life. The manly young Scotchman, how
ever, refused to submit. He took the next
steamer for this country, and on arriving de-
clared that he loved and would marry her
whether she ever regained her sight or not.
Stimulated by this unexpected happiness
she at once began to mend, and with the res
toration of her general health her eyes began
to improve, and now she has as bright pair
of brown ones as are to be seen anywhere,
and no one can see further into milestone
than she. They were married and will pro-
coed to Scotland sometime in the course of
this month.

AGAIN THEY WIN.

The New Havens Have Little TrOu-
BILE I'm Defeating she Bridgeporss-
No Rough Playing INDUCED INA
Pretty COntest-ScOre to 2-Hart-
ford Loses AS Usual.
The Bridgeports made thei1 first appear
ance here last night and met with defeat.
They did good work, nevertheless, but the
playing of the home team was much the
better. But for Abercrombie's fine work at
goal the score might have been larger. Ley
don's and Newcomb's rushing was something
marvellous. Legion probably never played
better game. The home team was in a
play and Dunning tended goal, and Watson,
the new man, played center. He is heavi-
ly built, muscular fellow. He is out of
practice, but gives promise of making val
liable player. Cummings work, tending
goal, was excellent. Twice he forgot him
self and left the cage to rush with the bal,
and Captain Hallett had to cover the cage.
Cummings funny antics kept the spectators
in coed humor.
The game was well played. The work of
both teams was clean throughout, and it was
pleasure to watch them play. No rough
playing characterized the contest. But two
fouls were called on each side and not one
for rough playing. The passing of both
teams was good. That of the heme team was a
great improvement over what it has been.
The New Ravens clearly outplayed their
opponents. No will deny, however,
that Manager Harris has got good
team. The New Ravens go to Meriden to
night.

III WAS ACCIDENTAL Death.

Coroner MIX to Render a Verdict BY
Accident in the Case of David Esftch.
ey who Died at the Hospital on sun
day-Hfs Injuries Received by Falling
Down stairs.
Coroner Mix said to q COURIER reporter
last night that in his mind the elderly man,
David Ritchey, met his death by an accident.
Ritchey is the man who was found in an I'M
conscious condition on Friday at his room in
Mrs. Hughes boarding house at 1872 Meadow
street and died at the hospital Sunday morn
ing without having regained consciousness.
1t appears very probable that he met his
death from falling down stairs while under
the influence of intoxicants. The coroner
has not yet finished his investigation, how
ever, but will render a verdict to day of
accidental death"
Detective Brewer, who was detailed to look
into the case, arrives at the same decision.
He reasons as follows: Ritchey was seen at z
O'Clock Friday morning and gave no evidence
of being injured; he was again seen about II
O'Clock by his roommate, Edward Lines.
His forehead was then discolored and he was
acting queerly. 1t was evident that he was
injured sometime between 7 and II o'clock
Friday morning. The examination at the
hospital showed that not only was the fore
head injured, but the injury extended to the
crown of this head. The discoloration of the
forehead was caused by the blood settling
there. AS the back stairs of the boarding
house were very steep he probably slipped
when on his way down and fell, landing on
his head. Such an aecident would cause
wound like the one on Ritchey's head.
Ritchey was SO years old and for some time
has been employed by @. J. Griswold, Of 1872
Dwight street. He was a French Canadian
and served in the war of the rebellion. He
leaves a wife, two sons and daughter.

PLYMOUTH CHURCH VERY HOT
over the Action ofDr. Parker in Charg-
ing for the EulogY.

over the Action ofDf. Parker in Charg"
Ing for the Eulogy.
NEW YoRK, Nov. 28.-The feeling in
Brooklyn over the Parker episode continues
very strong. It was SO marked yesterday
that when Assistant Pastor Halliday gave
out the usual announcements in Ply
mouth church he omitted to read
notice that DIR. Parker would preach
next Sunday. It is said he feared
the name would be greeted by Kisses and to
avoid such an occurrence he thought best TO
ignore notice. The excitement over the
affair was still greater to day, how
ever, when a despatch was published
dated Chicago in which DR.. Parker defantly
states that he received exactly $500
for the eulogy on Mr.. Beecher and that he
considered that no remarkable compensa-
ton for travelling six thousand miles, leaving
his home Eve weeks and preparing
tHe address. Members of Plymouth
church commenting on this assert that
it is well known that DR.. Parker
also received $3.50 from publishers syndi-
cate for the copyright of the eulogy. Deacon
White has written letter saying that
Plymouth pulpit would be too hot for DR..
Parker unless he explained matters. 1t
is said that to avoid scene
DIR. Parker Will be 0sked TO excuse
himself from filling the engagement to
preach next Sunday. It now appears that
Major Pond has been unjustly blamed in the
matter. He was the victim of a misunder-
! standing An offer of $500 to DR.. Parker
to deliver the eulogy had been previ-
/ ously made privately by others, but
withdrawn. When Major Pond suggested
the eulogy later DR.. Parker assumed that the
| $500 offer was renewed and he added 5000, it
| is said, for additional expenses, making $500
| in all Major Pond never agreed to pay
i the gross proceeds to the monument
/ fund, but only the net proceeds. He feels
hurt at Deacon Whites structures and
ridicules the idea conveyed by the deacon's
letter that everybody has been animated by
| pure love of Mr.. Beecher in these matters.
| The mayor says the extraordinary love for
Mr. Beecher has not materialized in hard
cash and is mostly cheap talk.

fact is that we are the only party that is in

they have no particular principle to fight for,

The Death of a Giant.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2S.-John Peters, giant
seven feet four inches in height, died at the
County hospital yesterday afternoon. Peters
was only twenty-one years old and came to
America about year ago. He appeared at a
museum as the F'giant policeman" He was
taken i'll with typhoid fever and November 2
went to the hospital. There was not bed
big enough in the hospital for him, but a
wide one was selected, the foot removed and
a wooden extension built to it, making cot
about nine feet long. Medicine was given
him in doses nearly double the usual size
and everything possible done for him, but

Boston Citizens, Man for mayer.

BosToN, Nov. 2S.-A citizens convention
held in Chickering Hall tonight, Hon. Will
liam CASTOR presiding, nominated Nathaniel
j. Bradlee for mayor. The selection of can

mission was left to committee of twenty
five, of which A. A. Burrage is chairman,

Mr.. Blake is a Democrat. He is man of

BOSTON, Nov. 28.-Papers were served to-
day upon Lolita, the well known actress, in a
suit fer 0,O6O damages instituted by
Abram Samuels, q commercial trav-
eler for paper concern in Cincin-
matt. The case is q novel one,
It appears that one day last week Samuels
chartered a herdic to carry him from his
hotel to the Providence depot where
he was to take a train
from the west. The horse, which
was lame and unfit for work, caught the eye
of Miss Lolita, who seized the bride and de
tanned the animal until an officer arrived and
ordered it taken back to the stable. Owing
to these proceedings Samuel lost his train and
he now seeks redress for his loss of time in
the manner stated.

THE HISTORICAL SOCIETY.

Election of Old Omcers-Address by
Professor Baldyvin-A Valuable Paper
by Professor Blake.
At the annual nesting last evening of this
society the old officers were reelected, and
Ellsworth I. Foote was elected director.
Professor Baldwin, the president, in his ad-
dress reviewed the chief events Of the worlds
progress in the past year, especially as to
foreign nations. He then spoke briefly of the
coming 250th anniversary of New Haven next
April, and the probability that New Haven
will duly celebrate SO notable an event. Fol-
lowing Professor William P. Blake read an
admirable paper regarding Eli Whitney, the
world wide famous inventor of the cotton gin
and the final recognition in his life time of
it's vast usefulness. It was very exhaustive
and able paper, for which he received an en-
thusiastic vote Of thanks.
